Did you know you can harness the power of your own awareness to literally reshape your brain? It’s a process called neural plasticity.
For example, when you become more stressed, the stress circuits in your brain grow larger, says Dawson Church, PhD, founder of the National Institute for Integrative Healthcare and bestselling author.
By contrast, when you become more relaxed — through mindful meditation, for example — the emotion regulation circuits in your brain grow larger.
In one of the case histories in Dawson’s book Mind to Matter, a man increased the size of his emotion regulation circuit by over 20% in just eight weeks! He made the shift in his neurological hardware based purely on meditation and mindfulness.
In the above video, Dawson shares how shifting your focus can change how your brain functions — and how that process can improve neural plasticity.
